Peak came in 2000-2001, with back-to-back second-week runs

Her best Grand Slam results were two R16 finishes, both in 2000 and 2001. Those came at the US Open and Wimbledon in 2000, then again at the US Open in 2001, marking the clear high point of her 38-match Slam career.

Australian Open and French Open were mostly early exits

Across her career, she never advanced beyond R64 at the Australian Open or French Open. The Australian Open produced five R128 losses and one R128 in 2008, while the French Open included four R128 exits plus a lone R64 in 1999.

Wimbledon was her most productive major

Wimbledon accounts for her deepest and most frequent progress: R16 in 2000 and 2001, R32 in 2001, plus R128 results in 1998, 1999, 2002, 2003, 2005, and 2006. No other Slam produced both an R16 and an R32.

Her Slam career was concentrated in a short middle stretch

She played Grand Slam matches from 1996-2003, then returned in 2005-2006 and 2008. The busiest run was 1999-2002, when she appeared in 16 of her 25 tournaments and collected 11 of her 13 match wins.

Late-career appearances ended with straight first-round losses

After 2001, every recorded result was R128 except Wimbledon 2003, which was also R128. Her final two appearances in 2008 were both first-round exits, at the Australian Open and French Open, at ages 29 and 30.
